Are you really going to rehash the same garbage from last season? This type of talk is the reason this will be my last post on this forum. Questioning the quality of a coach as usual. This a new season and there is no room for this garbage again. Keyplayer you took a synopsis of a team and turned it into a bashing session as usual. Bring some knowledge to your post about what these teams have to offer in NKY. Tell us about some key returning players or some sleeper teams. I don't want to hear your beefs about a coach. On that note, it should be a great girls soccer season in NKY as usual. Only a couple of months away. It has been a pleasure discussing and debating with some of the posters here on the soccer forum. This will be my last post on BGP due to a conflict of interest. Good luck to all the NKY girls soccer programs!

Highlands will need to replace their leading scorer and team leader in Taylor Vaughn. They also loose half of their starting defense. The main thing is that they are returning all of their starting midfielders. This is the key to this team because they are the motor that makes things run. Goalkeeper is another strong position for Highlands. Highlands will be a young team but are loaded with talent for the next several years. How that talent comes together this year will decide how far they can go. Tough schedule this season as well, with several really good Ohio teams on the schedule.

Think for pre-season you are about spot on All American.

Ben Weyer would be on my list along with the other's mentioned. Kid had an awesome JR year and this AAU season will only make him better. Getting calls from several D1 programs and an offer from NKU (since coaching change, not sure where that stands)

Oh, I never said these post were made by CovCath fans. They are made by Camel "supporters". That is the worst part of the whole thing.

So saying "The Camels didn't show up" or "the Camels had no heart", that's not bashing? The respectable thing to say was that the Camels didn't have the same fire that CovCath had in this game. That would be a true and respectful statement. To say that these kids didn't show up and have no heart is ridiculous considering the amount of blood and sweat they poured out to make it to State. Post posters on here counted them out after their mid-season woes. Did the Camels play well after the 1st quarter, no, but that has nothing to do with their heart or effort.

I don't remember my reply being directed at you, seeing as this is your first post in this thread.

Can someone please explain to me why there is so much Camel bashing going on??? Didn't play with heart, didn't show up. Let's face it, the Camels did not have a good game and CovCath played great. CovCath was prepared and did the job they know how to..win. I didn't see a lack of heart from the Camels. They played a good first half but laid an egg in the 2nd half. They switched between man and 1-3-1 zone. Coach Russell has 3 regional championships (one of those being in the 9th) in the last 6 years (maybe 5 years) so I would say that he knows how to coach. As far as making fun of a coach on the bench, show some class. How old are you, grow up.

He is the leader of that team, no question. Good Luck Camels!

Great write up Randy!

I believe Highlands, Holmes, and Ryle will be your top teams in the 9th. I wouldn't sleep on Conner. If they are not making a run at the 9th next year then it will be in 2016. They have a very talented pool of players but they are young.

Congrats to Holy Cross! Good luck at State! Congrats to Turner on the MVP.

I agree they got the ball to McDonald when he was down low but the problem was the help. Weyer too far away from the basket to be an option and no size to rebound off misses. If Weyer is down low with McDonald then would Holmes have been able to double and triple team Drew? I wish we could have seen the outcome if that was the case. Congrats on a great season NCC and good luck to Holmes the rest of the way.

He was in the low post more in the second half but not much in the first. Most of their screens were being ran out at the foul line by both Drew and Ben. I didn't say NCC lost because of coaching. I said that coaches game plan was a factor. I didn't take anything away from Holmes so not sure why you are implying that. Holmes played a great game.

I am not a basketball coach but I have to question why NCC plays their bigs so far from the basket. These are designed plays not the boys doing on their own. I know both have proven they can shoot the 3 but their game is inside. They worked the bigs inside for the first 3 minutes of the 3rd quarter and got the lead and then it disappeared. Size was NCC's advantage but they cannot use it when they are not even under the basket to grab offensive rebounds. I am going to address the elephant in the room...would the best coach in NKY(Ruthsatz) been able to take the most talented team in NKY and got them further. I just think the coaching has to be questioned. I respect what Dawn has done over his coaching career but there has to be some reason why this team hasn't done more.
